Privacy: Protection or Control.

Privacy is a concept under siege. Between Schwartzenegger's passing of a law in California to invade smoker's privacy in their own cars, and wiretapping dsl connections I am at a loss to express which is worse.

All the recent erosions of privacy are founded on the basis that the government is only doing it to protect us.

For some reason my brain is not wrapping around that very willingly. Appears to me it's more about the power to control behavior.
